Ep. 287: Feeney Files - Limp Wrists and Black Holes

The federal election is on! And we don’t want to jinx it, but Labor is looking up in the polls.  Is the spotlight on Dutton and his recent slip ups impacting the Coalition’s numbers?  Or has the Labor government finally struck a chord with voters on the kitchen table issues? Trump looms large in this campaign, and Australia’s next PM has a choice to make. Will they be defiant, like Trudeau?  Obsequious, like Argentine’s Javier Milei? Or play it somewhere in the middle, like Kier Starmer? Stephen Donnelly and David Feeney break it down in this week’s episode of Socially Democratic.
